Pros
Competitive starting salary for grad role Work hard play hard atmosphere
Cons
Graduate scheme did nothing but give an excuse to pay less to do the same work as regular analysts. There was no clear development opportunities other than very poorly executed workshops on basic skills such as sending emails. Pay reviews did not take place as outlined in the job spec. Applied for a specific role and was told on day one that I would have nothing to do with that area, seemed to be dropped in a random team. Clearly poor management leading to those with most viability being given promotions/being kept in role while those spending time doing the real work are passed over/made redundant. Company clearly moving towards near-shoring most roles. Multiple offices lead to clear silos, obvious bias towards the non-london offices. Management on huge bonus schemes while analysts are below market rate salary in relation to experience.
